In a natural way the ecological mattress topper improves the lying comfort on a mattress. Filled with organic millet husks it feels like lying on a bed of sand. In addition to the grain filling, the outer fabric made from organic herringbone ticking is breathable, regulates temperature and moisture. The mattress topper improves the sleeping climate and lying comfort on existing mattresses or sofa beds. In particular the widths of 70 cm and 80 cm are easy to roll up and handy and can therefore be used as a mattress for guests and for travelling. In widths of 70 cm or 80 cm, they can also be used as relaxing cushion on treatment couches.
Millet hulls are adjustable and cuddly like soft sand and are low-noise being moved. In order to make this material keep its wonderful qualities during use we bathe the millet husks in liquid vegetal latex, which is being absorbed by the husks. Once being dry the latex gives the husks a stabilizing structure due to the typical flexible resistance of latex. The millet hulls are now protected from rubbing off and become more endurable without loosing their permeability. The coating of latex gives the filling more cohesion and improves its sustaining qualities. The very smooth and round millet husks adopt the individual contours of your head, neck and shoulders. The millet mattress topper gives comfortable support. You can relax wonderfully while feeling perfectly sustained. The fact that millet hulls with natural latex are free of dust reduces the allergic risk for many sensible users. Only a high sensibility against latex products gives reasons for not using the mattress topper.
*Shipping costs for bulky goods
HINT special length: This can lead to longer delivery times, since the mattress toppers are made after the order is received.
Hardness grade and refilling: The mattress topper is supplied with a high filler loading, you can easily customise to your needs. The single lying zones can also be filled differently – for example, fixed in the lumbar region and resilient in the pelvic and shoulder area. The filling of grain shells becomes even smoother during use and gives way in volume. To obtain the optimum sleeping comfort for you, it may be useful to fill it accordingly. Once you sink too deep in the area of the pelvis, a correction is necessary.
Washing: The mattress cover is made of a breathable, durable mattress ticking from organic cotton and is machine washable up to 95° C. The shrinking is then about 2 %. At 60° C the shrinking is under 1 %. If you put the filling in special laundry nets, you can also wash the filling up to 60° C. The nets allow rapid drying. Careful adjustment of the dryer will promote long life of the filling.
Lifespan: The durability of the filling with natural rubber-impregnation allows a use for at least eight years or more. For reasons of hygiene it can be a useful to replace it at shorter intervals. You can do this yourself or ask your dealer to send it to us. The fillings can also be emptied and composted.
The organic millet shells are extracted in accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EC) No 834/2007. This is audited by LACON Institute according to the EU organic regulation on origin from organic farming.
